UNSPSC 85522629: Bypass right face vein to upper vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right face vein to upper vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 051T4JY

UNSPSC 85522629 Bypass right face vein to upper vein with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure — does not align with the work state and local governments are actually buying under this classification. Recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code do not describe vascular bypass surgery. Instead, the opportunities involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which are surgical procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity for its stated clinical scope.

The geographic spread of recent opportunities spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with issuing bodies including city retirement offices, county commissioners, transit authorities, and county health systems. No pattern of repeat buyers under this code emerges from the recent record, and the mismatch between the Commodity code's surgical specificity and the administrative and clinical management services actually being solicited suggests this code may be misapplied to opportunities in the health services procurement space.
